This review is from: Going to Church (Audio CD)

Mat and Joe Maneri with Matthew Shipp, Roy Campbell, Barre Phillips, and drummer Randy Peterson created this music in June of 2000 at Seltzer Sound NYC. It was a one time meeting of these improvisers who may come from different schools, yet have learned the art of musical communication and invention through years of working experience. European and American musical sensibilities merge suggesting more commonality than not. The different flavours are still there and in combination, a new one is formed. Everyone plays and listens well. Roy Campbell is particularly interesting in this setting. Both Maneri's and Barre Phillips are solid and sound most comfortable. Shipp and Peterson add their personal touches, sparse in places, dense in others. Overall, it's a very interesting listen and explores the infinite possibilities of ensemble sound. A unique disc by a unique group of musicians.
